About this experience
With an afternoon cruise, you avoid the peak heat and enjoy the golden glow of late day, ending with a spectacular sunset over the horizon.
Our luxury catamaran is stylish, refined, and built with your comfort in mind. Whether you prefer stretching out on a sunbed or unwinding in a shaded area, there’s always an ideal place for you to relax and savor every moment.
Gentle, uplifting music sets the perfect mood on board, filling the air with a cheerful vibe as you enjoy the journey. Between smiles and melodies, you’ll savor a selection of delicious Cretan bites and appetizers, a variety of sushi rolls, and a welcome glass of Prosecco — all included. Throughout the entire cruise, you can enjoy espresso, tea, water, soft drinks, as well as local Greek white wine and beer, available whenever you like.
Enjoy active fun or pure relaxation: try SUP, snorkel among marine life, or drift on a noodle. And of course, our iconic pink flamingo float is always ready for the perfect photo moment.
